SPORTING FRAUDS.
It is stated witk much paaitiTe«ess that
the late abortiTe boat-race between Court
ney and Haitian, was Bold by the former,
and certaiuly the facts appear to warrant
that inference. If this were an isolated
case of the kind it might not justify any
disparaging generalisation, but it is by no
means a Mlitary instance. The in
crease of framel in sporting erents of all
kinds appears to have boen proceeding
steadily of late years, ami when we con
sider that this has been coincident with the
increase of fraod in politics and commerce,
perhaps we ought to look upon it as merely
the natural adaptation of ail things to
their environment. But however the
growth of fraud in Sporting matters may
be accounted for, it seems inevitable that
it must, if continued, gradually extingu^h
all general interest in the class of evuats
referred to. The pri7.e-ring was some years
•go practically banished from England by
the advent of corruption, and the same
remit must be reached in this country
in connection not only with pugilism,
but with sports and games and
trials of ckiH of all kinds, unless some
serious effort is made to reform the man
agement of these affairs. Seeing h»w
largely sporting has become a mere excuse
for gambling, perhaps it would not do
much harm to public morals if it should
fall generally into disrepute. But tho de
sirability 6f sustaining and encouraging
athletic and health-giving exercises is too
obvious to be questioned, and it would cer
tainly be a misfortune if such exercises
were abandoned because of tho dishonesty
•f mine persons who have, undertaken to
make their living by tkera. It is, of
course, i»;u«!y in the trials of skill or en
duranco that the public are interested.
Let them ones become persuaded that
there ii to be no genuine trial of the kind,
and they will drop the whole business, in
cluding kor.ie- racing, and leave it to the
professional "sports," who will then dis
cover that they have killed the goose that
laid the golden eggs.
THE ILLINOIS CONTESTANTS.
It appeal's to be certain that the Illinois
delegations to the State Convention which
were to arbitrarily deprived of representa
tion by the Grant fiction at Springfield last
week, will appear at Chicago as contest
ant?, and will dispute the right of the Illi
nois Grant delegation to be admitted. The
r vjl t of snoh a contest will depend largely
upon the organirntion of the Chicago Con
vention. If the organization is captured
by the Grant men no doubt the Illinois del
egates will be admitted. But it v-il' evi
dently be the interest of all the ut'itv can
didates to resi-it their admits: n, since
without them all hope of nominating Grant
on the first ballot must be abandoned, and
it is almost certain that if he is not nom
inated on the first ballot he cannot be nom
inated at all. Thus the chief interest of
the struggle will center in the Illinois del
egation, and it is apparent that a formida
ble effort will be made to counteract the
nsnrpation perpetrated by Logan. The
card of Hon. C. B. Farwell in this
connection is specially significant. He
therein deolares that "The anti -Grant
"districts have elected delegates and will
"present them at Chicago. Logan and
" Garcelon stand as the political burglars
"of the time, and Logan's crime against
" liberty will, in th'c end, bring him no
"moro spoil than was won by Garcelon."
These expressions show not only that de
termined action is to be taken, but that
the anti-Grant men in Illinois are deeply
exasperated, and resolved to push the
quarrel to the bitter end. There has never
been so much angry feeling between the
contending parties as at present, and this
ferling ia growing so rapidly that we shall
sot be surprised if it results in a split in
the Convention. There can be no doubt
that the least attempt to cozen the anti-
Grant delegates to that body out of their
rights, and to procure the nomination of
Grant by arbitrary and unfair tactics, will
produce a resistance of the most pro
nounced character. In fact, all the dele
gates are approaching the scene of their
labors in a more or less excited frame of
mind, auu it will require consummate tact
and a very conspicuous disposition towards
fair play to avert trouble.
MR. DAVIS MAKES A MISTAKE.
; Perhaps it was natural that the Hon.
Horace Davis, in addressing an audience of
Pennsylvania Protectionists, should ; hare
been tempted to put himself en rapport
with his entertainers on fiscal subjects, but
■.ye are nevertheless obliged to point out
that he has made a mistake in expressing a
hope or belief that California will accept
the erroneous and * mischievous * economic
doctrines which find favor in Philadelphia,
Mr. Davis is reported a3 expressing the
opinion 'that this State is about to enter
upon her third stage of development,' which
will take the form of V manufactures.
"And this," the reporter makes him say,
"has led Californians to reconsider their
"views upon the subject of protection,
"and it may be set down with reasonable
" certainty that the Califomian voice will
" hereafter be in favor of a policy of pro
"tection." We hope not, nor do we un
derstand what Mr. Davis means by saying
that the people of this State have recon
sidered their views on the subject of ■ pro
tection. If any indications of , this charac
ter have appeared, they have certainly
escaped our attention, and we trust that
the economic views of intelligent Califor
nians are too firmly grounded in reason
and experience to be liable to such a
capricious change as our representa
tive suggests. Protection is an ob
jectionable policy because it involves
the imposition of burdensome taxes upon
the community for the purpose of bolster
ing up industries which are '"capable of
maintaining themselves. If California is
in such a condition at present that she
cannot have manufactures without Protec
tion, this fact is a sufficient proof that the
time for the introduction of manufactures
has not yet arrived, and that therefere it
would be a mistake to try to force the
change. The natural growth of industry
and production is the only safe and desirable
kind of growth. Protection seeks to create
artificial markets for wares the production
of which is not required, because they can
be had more cheaply elsewhere. The
methods pursued in creating this artificial
market are, moreover, immoral and unjust.
Tka right of the consumer . to buy in the
cheapest market is one of those self-evident
propositions which nothing but stupidity on
the one hand, and unscrupulous greed on
the other, could ever have obscured. Pro
teotion roks the many for the benefit of the
few. Its imposts are as naked confiscations
as the forceful deprivations of the highway
robber. Instead of fostering the industries
of a country it fetters them. By turning
capital aside from natural and therefore
legitimate investments, and by concentrat
ing it in artificially supported manufact
ures, it checks healthy development, and at
the same time builds up a great body of
subsidy-seeking paupers whose interests are
totally opposed to those of the people, and
who are continually striving to extend
the area of industrial paralysis, and to
draw larger forced contributions from the
helpless consumer. It is a perfectly safe
maxim that no business or industry which
cannot live on its own merits ought to
live. If manufactures will not flourish
here without propping, it is because
capital finds more profitable investment in
other directions. Freedom of trade and
of production ought to be the demand of
this as of every progressive community,
for any other demand is a confession of
weakness which freemen should be
ashamed to make.
Nor is it possible that Protection can
protect manufactures in California, for
our mu3t formidable rivals must always be
in the Eastern States, and against their
competition there can be no help. As re
gards the manufacture of wine, Mr. Davis
ought to perceive that it is an industry
least of all in need of such bolstering.
For if Californians make good wine, it is
sure to find a market, while if theydo not
mako good wine, no amount of protection
will induce people to drink it. The wine
manufacture of this State has gone on in
creasing thus far without extraneous as
sistance, and we have no doubt that it can
hold its own hereafter. But if it cannot
hold its own, the fact must be taken as
evidence that the investment of capital in
that direction is a mistake, and in such a
case it ought to be abandoned, instead of
beiDg sustained by plundering the people.
The essential fallacy of Protection
is the idea that nature can be cir
cumvented by governmental regu
lations. It is of course possible
to build up manufactures anywhere by a
sufficiently unscrupulous resort to this
method, but it is not possible to do
this without incurring an enormous wrong
and an enormous waste. The money
which is taken from the American people
to support pretended industries would, if
our fiscal policy was reformed, rind its way
into natural channels which would produce
twice as muoh, and that without wronging
anyone. Protection is at once the most
oostly, unjust, irrational and roundabout
method of building up manufactures that
the mind of mm has invented. It is
worthy to be classed with the Chinese
m3thod of cooking pork described by
Charles Lamb, according to which it was
held necessary to burn down a house in
order to roast a pig. And in the present
case the absurdity of the demand for Pro
tection is enhanced by the consideration
that so long as importations from the East
are free, the most damaging competition can
by lv means be escaped. We should rejoice
to see an era of manufacturing dawn on
this coast, but we would rather it should
be postponed half a century than have
it inaugurated under a system of Protec
tion. We hope that with the spread of
knowledge among our people the follies
and fallacies of Protection will be more
and more clearly perceived, and that the
voice of California will be heard in the
interests of Free Trade, more clearly and
loudly as she advances on her destined
coarse. For that policy alone is suited to
her real wants, and under that policy alone
can she hope to develop all her resources,
and secure her rightful share of the popu
lation, commerce and wealth of the world.
A CHARACTERISTIC SOMERSAULT.
The New York HrraUi has just achieved I
one of those characteristic somersaults for
which it ia notorious, and its tendency to
which so fully explains its utter lack of in
fluence upon public opinion. After having
fought the third-term movement in the
most persistent and laborious way, after
having opposed the renomination of Grant
from every conceivable standpoint, after
having put forward a half dozen candidates
of its own, each and all of whom it sol
emnly declared to be the best men avail
able, it is so demoralized by Logan's cap
ture of the Illinois Convention that it
throws itself head over heels, and with a
ludicrous assumption of seriousness an
nounces the next morning] that Grant ia
" the only fit candidate" for the Presidency.
What makes this sudden and unprincipled
"flop" even more astonishing than it
would otherwise be, is the fact that it is so
utterly unnecessary. The New York Her
ald is read by hundreds of thousands for
its news, 4 but nobody reads it for its opin
ions. „ It now Grant should be nominated,
it would support him after its usual fash
ion, but whether it supported "or opposed
him would make no difference to its read
ers, for they are not guided or influenced
by " its - political expressions at all. Of
course no paper - that ; habitually pursues
such a policy can hope to wield any influ
ence over public opinion, and perhaps the
Herald does not desire 'to do so. But at
least it would -be as easy and as advan
tageous to maintain some semblance of con
sistency, for at present its want of trust
worthiness and stability deprives its edito
rial columns of all interest and signifi
cance.
I . »-.
TILDEN AND HIS PARTY.
We presume that very few Democrats
reaily believe it possible to beat Tilden for
the nomination, if he wants it ; and that
still fewer have any doubts as to whether
he wants it. We hear now and then some
faint intimation that he may not be able to
carry a solid South, but of course that is all
flummery, siuce the solid South has no
other ticket to vote than the Democratic,
and however much some Southerners may
dislike Tili'.en they woul I rather vote for
him than for the best Republican who could
be named. Tilden thinks the nomination
is his right, and he has taken steps to ren
der that theory operative. He appears to
have about two- thirds of all the delegates
thus far elected, and the opposition to him
is very feeble outside of New York, and
not very formidable there. He seems in
fact to be completely master of the situation,
and though the New York World still
fights him, it will have to fall into line
with the rest after he has conveyed his will
to the Cincinnati Convention.
THE ELECTORAL COUNT.
If we are to judge from the tone of the
debates on the electoral count in the Sen
ate the other day, there are some Republi
cans as well as Democrats who do not
greatly care to have the matter adjusted.
This, at least, is what we gather from Mr.
Conkling's remarks, for it was evident that
he occupied the position of an obstruction
ist, and that any course proposed would
have been equally objectionable to him. It is
carious that just at this juncture Mr. Conk
ling should show himself undeeirous of
having the electoral count provided for
equitably and definitively, for it really
seems to lend some serious significance
to the statements which have been put for
ward by the Stalwarts, about the necessity
of having a candidate who would not sub
mit to be counted out, but would see that
he got his seat. Possibly the news from
Illinois had the effect of making Mr. Conk
ling indifferent to the securing of any pro
vision for making the electoral count.

Sakta Cruz, May 23d.— The local train on
the South Pacific Coast Railroad which run
to-day between here and the Bi.^ Tree* with
passengers to the Independent Rifle picnic at
that place, met with a terrible accident, as
the following will show : At 3:30 p. M. three
! open cars, with high railings on the sides and
ends, with seatf, and loaded with about 125
people, left that place for this city. The train
was pulled by No. 3 engine, R. Elliott being
the engineer. On the way down all went
well until No. 7 tunnel was parsed, said tun
nel being located just above and overlooking
the powder works. Some of the men observed
that as the cars passed through the tunnel the
speed of the engine was increased, and it be
ing down grade, just as the curve in the road
was reached the firat car jumped the track to
the left and the second to the right, the third
car remaining on the track. The people on the
lir.-t two cars were
THROWN INTO A HEAP
Inside toward the bank iv a confused mas=,
men, women and children, the cars passing
over thtwe who were nearest to and lying by
the track. Those on the third car were un
injured, merely being knocked oif their feet.
Those not hurt immediately set to work to
assist the wounded and look after the dying
and dead. Word was immediately sent to
this place and Felton for assistance, which
was promptly rendered. A gloom of sadness
to-night is cast over our city. Every hotel is
being turned into a hospital to receive the
wounded, which will number upwards of
forty. Already thirteen are reported dead,
and others will die before morning. A num
ber of San Francisco people were on the
train at the time of the accident. It will be
impossible to give the full list of the wouuded
to-night, as they are being cared for by all
parties, and are spread over various parts of
the town. Some of the dead have not been
identified. The physicians are heroically
working to relieve the sufferings of the
-vounded, and are ably assisted by the Sisters
of Charity. No services are being held at
the churches, such is the feeling of sadness.
Following is a list of the dead and wounded,

San Jose, May 24th— a. m.— A frightful
! accident occurred about 4 o'clock this after
{ noon on the Felton and Santa Cruz Division
of the South Pacific Coast Railroad. The
accident occurred about two and a half miles
south of Felton, while the regular train was
running between Felton, Big Tree Grove and
i Santa Cruz. Itissaidanumberof excursionists
j who were picnicking at the grove concluded
'to ride over to Santa Cruz. The train con
: sisted of an engine md three flat cars, and it
j started with about 150 passengers. Almost
I opposite the powder mill the forward flat car
' jumped the track, the others following over
I into the ditch and into an embankment — in
| stantly wrecking the train with the above

Found Floating la tin- Buy— The Sand
tot— Case Not Appealable— Acrimonious
Debate.
San Francisco, May 23J.— The body of
Charles F. McCabe, a native of New York,
aged 25 years, who has been mining some
two weeks, was found floating in the bay
to-day.
At the sand lot to-day H. W. Smith, Vice
President of the W. P. C, presided. In his
address he (stated that the city members of
the State Convention had not treated the
country delegates with courtesy, but attempt
ed to run the Convention in the interests of
the Democratic party. They had made a
mistake, ami if the men who had been lifted
from the gutter by the W. P. C. kept on they
would be hurled back there. Resolutions
were adopted indorsing the action of the
Greenback wing of the State Convention,
thanking the country members for their
stand in protecting the interests of the party,
and denouncing the Democratic (or Brady
and Mannix) wing of the Convention.
A a meeting of the Board of Ward Presi
dents to-day, a communication was read from
Governor Perkins, stating that no apneal had
been taken to the United States Supreme |
Court in the Parrott case, involving the con
stitutionality of the law prohibiting the em
ployment of Chinese by corporations, us the
case was not appealable. A resolution con
demning the action of the so-called State
Convention in seeking to commit the party
to an affiliation with the Greenback Labor
party called forth an acrimonious debate.
The resolution was finally ruled out of order.
